Former Attorney General William Barr writes in his new book that former President Donald Trump is to blame for the January 6 Capitol Hill riot as he calls for a new 2024 nominee.

“The election was not ‘stolen,’” he asserts in the book, titled One Damn Thing After Another. “Trump lost it.”

Barr also profiles a meeting he had in the Oval Office after he declared publicly that widespread evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election did not exist.
“’This is killing me—killing me. This is pulling the rug right out from under me,’” Barr claims Trump shouted at him.

Mr. Trump then launched into a list of other grievances he had with his attorney general: that the federal prosecutor Mr. Barr ordered to review the origins of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Russia probe that preceded the Mueller report hadn’t released his findings before the 2020 election, and that Mr. Barr declined to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey after a department watchdog rebuked him for sharing memos that contained sensitive information about his interactions with Mr. Trump, a complaint brought up repeatedly by the president.
Barr claims he offered his resignation at that moment, which the president accepted. “Leave and don’t go back to your office. You are done right now. Go home!” Barr asserts Trump told him.
Barr eventually resigned from his position weeks later.
Regarding January 6, the former attorney general said that Trump lost himself after the election and pushed the voter fraud to such an intense degree that it led to the riot on Capitol Hill.
“The absurd lengths to which he took his ‘stolen election’ claim led to the rioting on Capitol Hill,” he writes.

Blow it out your arse Bob!!
Well isn’t that special. Mr. “run out the clock” is upset that Trump might return and clear out all his old buddies at Justice.
Barr loves Biden.
Deep state showing concern that the public may again elect someone who serves the public’s interests.
Fat useless piece of crap.
1. Honestly, the US Attorneys across the country have not wanted to pursue cases. For example, in Philadelphia, I’m aware of a case of alleged fraud brought to the USA’s office there and the individuals couldn’t even get through the door.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) December 1, 2020
2. I regret to say it is misleading for AG Barr to issue his declaration to the AP as he did since the DOJ has been very passive.

This reads more like an endorsement of Trump to me. Anything the deep staters want or recommend tells you the direction you should choose to go.
The revelations of the past few years have confirmed all we suspected about the Uniparty. Thank you, President Trump for bringing this glum news to light.
Interested in the form/amount of payoff involved or is it just the clamoring of the skeletons in Barr’s closet?
BS
IF Barr had offered resignation and Trump acceoted there is no way Trump would have let Barr hang around.
Exactly, this prick waited until the last day to resign so Trump could not put someone in there who would actually investigate the cheating. Another treasonous backstabbing scumbag.
Well Bill is guaranteed a handsome return selling his book to the same gang of deranged cretins who sucked up Mary Trump’s book.
Apparently the general effect his book has on the welfare of the nation is of no concern to him. Anyway Barr’s decades long role in the deep state is over, fortunately.
So, the deep state doesn’t want Trump to run in 2024. My surprised face: 😲.
Similar to the KGB, the US DOJ is the political brain and nerve center of Fed.gov. Its control is both via lawfare, and the power of the FBI.
Trump never controlled the DOJ. It controlled him. Sessions was a disaster, who hobbled Trump from the start. Barr was a handler/minder/compromise who was there to prevent open warfare. IMHO.
Unfortunately these have been the type that Trump chose to surround himself with. Gotta learn the The “Scorpion and the Frog” lesson some day.
Go stick your bagpipes where the sun don’t shine, Billy Boy.
